Trial of war criminals The Tribunal trying war crimes of 1971 i.e. International Crimes Tribunal, has given verdict in 21 cases till present. In 2015, the verdicts of three war criminals have been executed. The punishment of these three persons who committed grave violation of human rights is a great step in ensuring human rights.

The Finance Minister introduced ‘Budget Thoughts for Children’ report, first of its kind in Bangladesh, in fiscal year 2015-16.

Labor Rights The draft of the protection and welfare of domestic workers policy 2015 was approved by the cabinet in December 2015. In the policy, the domestic workers have been brought under the umbrella of it and the policy ensures proper and dignified environment of work including protection, welfare, leisure, recreation and leave etc. For, light work the age of the domestic worker has to be 14 years and for heavy works 18 years. There is penal provision against physical and mental torture of the worker. The worker welfare foundation shall supervise the welfare of the domestic workers. The government shall also start a helpline. The government has introduced the Bangladesh Labor Rules 2015 on September 15, 2015 with a view to implementing the Labor Act 2006. Workers will mostly be benefitted with the rule as the annual collection of the labor welfare fund will stand at Tk 720 million and the workers will enjoy different benefits from the fund. In 2015, about hundreds of workers died in work area. This data shows that, thought major occurrence is not happening, but workers; right to life is not ensured due to lack in occupational safety measures. 13 JAMAKON
